The way of the child of God



Acts 1:1~8│But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. (8)

There are things in life that can confuse children of God. There are types of theology that keep us from enjoying the Gospel, and people who say incorrect things can confuse us. We must not fall into such deception. Children of God must enjoy the evidence God has given to His children and the identity by which they will save the age. We must be careful because Satan continues to try and confuse us so we don’t enjoy our identity.

1. Fundamental (Faith)

Satan blocks us from knowing what is fundamental and takes away our faith. Children of God must know this fact and overcome problems from now on. First of all, we must overcome family problems. Second, we must survive in the world by the Gospel alone, like Moses did. Third, we must get rid of all excuses and overcome church problems. Fourth, we must overcome the serious problems of society like David did. Fifth, we must overcome the culture of darkness that is in the hands of Satan, like Elisha did. Sixth, we must be able to overcome great calamities like Isaiah did. Seventh, we must overcome problems concerning the future like Paul and Timothy did. All we have to do is entrust everything to God, even our many problems. No problem can overcome the Gospel.

2. Lifestyle (Guidance)

Satan tries to take away our lives. God tells us that He will guide us through the Holy Spirit. If so, how can we receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit? First, we must give the confession of faith that there is no truth other than the Gospel. We will realize there is nothing more urgent than evangelism and there is no one more important than disciples. Someone who has realized these three things will receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

3. Evangelism (Filling)

Satan tries to steal away the work of evangelism. God told us to receive the filling of the Holy Spirit. Pharaoh told Joseph that he had never seen anyone so filled with the spirit of God. The Lord’s spirit was with Samuel and David, and the Lord gave Elisha a double portion of His spirit. Children of God must find a method of receiving the filling of the Holy Spirit that is just right for them. Our rhythm in life will be restored when we do scheduled prayer, and our nature will change when we do continuous prayer. From then on, works will continue to arise. In addition, we must not lose hold of the covenant of the Bible, because the evidences in the Bible, the history book of evangelism, will arise.
